• You Can Still Help Host the All-School Faculty + Staff Appreciation Luncheon!

  Dear Parents,
  
  We are excited to host our annual All-School Faculty and Staff Appreciation Luncheon on Tuesday, April 29, as a way to celebrate and thank the incredible teachers and staff who make such a difference in our children’s lives. This event will be held the week before Teacher Appreciation Week, and we need your help to make it extra special! We are looking for contributions in the following areas:

  • Sponsorship (monetary contribution to Mary Kochones either via Venmo @Mary-Kochones or Zelle mtkochones@gmail.com to help cover the cost of taco carts)
  • Food (homemade or store-bought vegan and/or gluten-free dishes)
  • Flowers (spring or pastel colors)
  • Volunteers (to help set up, serve, and clean up)

  This is always a fun and heartfelt event that brings so much joy to our faculty and staff, and it’s a wonderful way to show them just how appreciated they are. If you are able to contribute in any way, please click the link below for more details.

  Warmly,
